In this episode Brandon and Chris meet Jeremy Reets, the godfather of training techs in the restoration business. Jeremy's been interviewed a gazillion times since starting Reets Drying Academy, but in this show, we take some unexpected turns with him. In particular, we talk about the family origins of the business. How did Jeremy's dad manage the boys once they were working in the family restoration company? How did that shape Jeremy's approach to building and leading the Academy? We also talk about Reets' low turnover, what he hear's from visiting technicians, and his thoughts on the future of the industry.
